Let It Be: Jake Carter Brings The Beatles' Music to Life on Tour
Growing up in Liverpool, Jake Carter was surrounded by the iconic landmarks associated with The Beatles. While he never met the Fab Four himself, his grandmother had encounters with them in her youth. Now, Jake is bringing their music to life with his new show and tour, Let It Be.
Jake's childhood in Liverpool meant passing by places like Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane, which were just part of his everyday surroundings. As he delved into music as a teenager, The Beatles' influence grew on him, leading to his obsession with their music. Now, he is fulfilling his dream of performing their hits on stage.
Let It Be is a two-hour show featuring Beatles classics, curated by Jake and his bandmate Kevin Rowe. The show is not a traditional tribute act with wigs and costumes but rather a fresh take on the band's music. The setlist includes hits from different albums, showcasing the evolution of The Beatles' sound over the years.
Choosing songs for the show has been a challenge due to the vast catalog of Beatles tracks. Jake and his bandmates have had to narrow down the selection to fit the two-hour performance. While they can't include every hit, they hope to expand the setlist in future iterations of the show.
The band members each bring their own musical talents to the stage, with Jake taking on the John Lennon role, Kevin as the lead guitarist, Daryl on bass, and Caoilinn on drums. Their focus is solely on the music, delivering a raw and authentic Beatles experience for fans.
While the current tour emphasizes the music, Jake envisions adding stage sets and other elements in future shows. The band shares personal stories and anecdotes related to Beatles songs, adding a personal touch to the performance. For Jake, Let It Be is a passion project that allows him to share his love for The Beatles with audiences.
Don't miss the chance to experience Jake Carter and his band perform the music of The Beatles on their Let It Be 2026 tour at various venues across Ireland. Join them for a night of iconic Beatles hits and musical nostalgia.
